Alright, let's carefully analyze the given table and the dietary advice based on the nutritional information provided.
The table shows the following values:
[tex]\[
\begin{array}{|l|l|l|}
\hline \text{Macromolecule} & \text{Suggested percentage of diet} & \text{Actual percentage of diet} \\
\hline \text{Carbohydrates} & 45\%-65\% & 70\% \\
\hline \text{Lipids} & 20\%-35\% & 5\% \\
\hline \text{Proteins} & 10\%-35\% & 25\% \\
\hline
\end{array}
\][/tex]
We need to determine if the actual percentage of each macromolecule in the patient's diet falls within the suggested range and provide advice accordingly.
1. Carbohydrates:
- Suggested range: [tex]\(45\%-65\%\)[/tex]
- Actual percentage: [tex]\(70\%\)[/tex]
- This value is higher than the suggested range.
2. Lipids:
- Suggested range: [tex]\(20\%-35\%\)[/tex]
- Actual percentage: [tex]\(5\%\)[/tex]
- This value is lower than the suggested range.
3. Proteins:
- Suggested range: [tex]\(10\%-35\%\)[/tex]
- Actual percentage: [tex]\(25\%\)[/tex]
- This value is within the suggested range.
Based on this information:
- Carbohydrates are too high.
- Lipids are too low.
- Proteins are within the suggested range.
Given these observations, we need to advise the patient to adjust their diet in a way that reduces the intake of carbohydrates and increases the intake of lipids. Specifically, the patient should reduce foods high in carbohydrates (such as rice and pasta) and increase foods that are high in lipids (such as oils).
Therefore, the appropriate advice is:
The patient should decrease the amount of rice and pasta and increase the amount of oils in his or her diet.
This advice matches one of the provided options exactly.
